Lindsay Traisnel finished in 10th place at the CCI* FEI World Breeding Eventing Championships for Young Horses, six-year-old division, held in Le Lion D’ Angers, FRA, October 16–19, 2014.
Riding Ulysse de Rubercy (Arioso du Theillet SF x Oberon du Moulin), a six-year-old Selle Francais gelding owned by Manon and Christine Rozé, Traisnel of Tecumseh, Ont., was sitting in 10th place following dressage with a score of 48.80. The pair added only four jumping faults to their performance to finish the competition on a final score of 52.80.
“Ulysse was fantastic all week,” said Traisnel. “Other than a light rub in the show jumping, he didn’t really put a foot wrong from the moment he got there. It’s hard to have personal best performances in all three phases come together at one event, especially for such a young horse in that kind of atmosphere, but he really stepped up and gave me everything he had.”
